Hebe Champagne

Hebe 'Champagne'

A low growing beauty! Large white flowers abound in summer and autumn, and look great against foliage massed in green and purple hues. Great groundcover evergreen shrub that grows rapidly and looks tidy all year round.

Hebe Margaret

Hebe 'Margaret'

An absolute picture from summer and into autumn when it's flushed with petite light-blue-violet flowers. They sit just above the foliage and contrast well against the small rich-green elliptical leaves. Margaret's a small grower and makes an exceptional container subject.

Hebe Ohau

Hebe 'Ohau'

Eye-catching royal purple flowers with a bright magenta-red eye make Ohau hard to walk past when it's in full glory during late spring and into summer. Its foliage is attractive too - green leaves tipped purple on a compact plant. Great plant for new gardens; they grow rapidly and provide shelter for other plants.

Hebe Red Edge

Hebe albicans 'Red Edge'

A splendid, dense, mounding shrub with year-round interest. It has tiny grey-green leaves that sport a striking red margin that's so intense that come spring, the leaves take on a pink hue. From summer to autumn pink flower buds open lilac and fade to white.

Hebe Waireka

Hebe francisana 'Waireka'

Hardy, evergreen and colourful all year round. This is a high contrast shrub with glossy leaves with green centres edged in cream and silver.

Hebe White Cloud

Hebe speciosa 'White Cloud'

This one's something really special. Its grey-green leaves are heavily margined in a creamy white and have contrasting purple stems, most prominent near the growing tips. If that's not enough, we're rewarded again with a summer flush of bright mauve-blue flowers. A landscape winner.

Hebe 'Winsome Girl'

Charming violet-blue flowers in autumn are just the icing on the cake with this delightfully compact narrow-leafed hebe. It has purple and green foliage, with green hues dominating during the warmer months and purple tones talking over as weather cools. All year round interest.
